Having growing up in Long Beach, this place was a staples for everyone. A Cambodian restaurant where everyone get together during the weekend for brunch. And in the evening, there would always be some kind of reception. Either it be for a party or wedding. It's your quintessential asian restaurant.
As for this visit, Sunday brunch with the family. We did have quite a big group attending. My sister called the restaurant that morning asking if reservations were needed for a large group. It does busy there but there's always tables available. They told us that they will reserve two tables for us. When we arrived, you kind of just let yourself in and wait to be seen. Staff was kind of all over the place. Someone, a guy finally greeted us after juust standing there trying to get someone's attention. Told him that we called and two tables were saved for us. Honestly, he didn't know what we were talking about. After a couple minutes, he saId that he'll put up at the two tables in the front. Ok, that's fine. But then it kind of went south from there. I guess on the weekend they havE live performances. So throughout the whole meal, give or take a song break here and there. It was a bit much, loud. We basically had to scream to one another just to communicate. It was nice that they have the performers, but why have us seated literally right in the front when there were plenty of tables available throughout the restaurant.
We ordered one of the family style meal. They offered a lot of their classic dishes. The hot and sour seafood soup, sautéed crab, whole fish, a stir fry, clams and beef sticks. We also ordered extra beef stick and some fried rice and noodle dish. The dishess comes out in no particular order. Whatever is readY first. White rice was brought out as well. Toward the end of the meal, thE noodle dishes never came. We asked the waitress and she seemed stunned. As if they had bright it already. Plus, we ordered that for the kids. So that was a let down. When the bill finally came, I don't know if prices were raised for some of the dishes but they seemed pretty high. Also, you would think that family style meal, the white rice was included. We were charge for 2 pot of the rice at 7.00 a bowl. Just assume that it was included.
Overall, I do like the restaurant. Food is good, service can be slow depending on when you visit. Parking can be a hassle.
